Harviva HP Solution

Formerly known as Finapod Solution

Alopecia is a challenging and complex skin condition for many, involving the thinning or complete absence or hair in areas where it typically grows. For men specifically, the most common form of hair loss (male pattern baldness or male androgenetic alopecia) affects up to 50% of men by age 50 [1]. There are many options available that attempt to treat male pattern hair loss and promote hair regrowth. SKNV’s Harviva HP Solution is one of those potential solutions, combining two active ingredients to create a tailored formulation that aims to target alopecia, prevent further hair loss, and stimulate hair growth. 

What is Harviva HP Solution? 

Harviva HP Solution is a customized topical medication that is prescribed by providers across the nation to address alopecia and hair loss in men . Harviva HPcan also be prescribed to women, but less common. This tailored solution formulation functions using a dual-action approach of two active ingredients that work to prevent the shrinking of hair follicles, stimulate hair growth, and enhance existing hairs. 

Being a solution, its vehicle sets Harviva HP Solution apart from its branded and generic counterparts, as commercially available treatments offer finasteride as an oral only. So, SKNV’s topical finasteride in this formulation demonstrates our commitment to providing accessible and high-quality solutions to common skin concerns like hair loss conditions.

Harviva HP Solution Ingredient Profile

Harviva HP Solution presents a unique combination of two active ingredients, each playing a specific role in the hair growth journey for alopecia and hair loss patients. 

  • Finasteride is a medical agent often prescribed for male androgenetic alopecia, usually in oral medication form. It is regarded for its ability to increase hair growth on the scalp by inhibiting the body’s ability to convert testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone associated with hair follicle shrinkage and hair loss. By reducing DHT levels, topical finasteride helps to slow hair loss and promote hair regrowth.  
  • This particular solution contains finasteride at a potency of 0.1%. 
  • Minoxidil is a topical agent often used in topical medications to induce hair regrowth and improve hair density. It works to improve blood flow around hair follicles to stimulate and prolong follicle growth phases. 
  • This particular solution contains minoxidil at a potency of 7%. 

This minoxidil and finasteride active ingredient combination is one factor that makes Harviva HP Solution clinically different from branded or generic medications. 

Additionally, the potency of SKNV’s topical minoxidil in this formulation helps Harviva HP Solution stand out, as over-the-counter minoxidil is only available at a potency of 5%.

Using Harviva HP Solution

For optimal results, Harviva HP Solution should be applied according to the instructions provided by the prescribing dermatologist. 

Generally, a provider might recommend that the solution be applied directly to a dry scalp, starting in the center of the hair loss area. Using the applicator provided, all patients should use their medication as instructed, as the dosage and timing of application varies per patient. Patients should not use shampoo or a hairdryer on their scalp after applying this topical solution. 

Patients should wash their hands directly after their Harviva HP application to remove any excess prescription. To avoid stains on clothing, bed linens, pillowcases, or other materials, it is best to ensure that the solution has proper time to dry, which usually involves two to four hours post-application. 

Regular and consistent use as directed is essential to achieving the best outcomes. If you realize that you missed a dose and you are close to applying the next dose, skip the missed dose and apply regularly. Do not apply extra layers to make up for the missed dose.

Tell your doctor immediately if you undergo an allergic reaction (e.g., itching or skin rash, swelling, burning), if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, if you are breastfeeding, or if you have liver disease while using your minoxidil and finasteride combination. 

Potential Drug Interactions 

Before beginning treatment, patients should inform their healthcare provider of all current health conditions and medications to avoid potential interactions. This includes any supplements, prescription or non-prescription medications (oral or topical), herbs, alcohol, and drug use. Patients should follow their provider’s exact directions about their medication usage.
